Hello everyone!! We have been very busy socially this month so far! Lol. I think we are making up for our “lost summer” due to Wyatt’s surgery and recovery. We have been having a good time but this mom is getting tired! Lol. This weekend we visited a “haunted bookstore” for some shopping, spent Saturday creating Halloween decorations, then going to an outdoor movie at my brother’s, then yesterday our Blackbirds went on a nature walk and “insect encounter” on Belle Isle, then Wyatt, Billy, and I went to the Detroit Zoo Boo. Phew. I am so ready … for our busy week. Wyatt is having a great time though so it is worth it.
What I Read:
I read Play Nice by Rachel Harrison and Ghost Business by Jen DeLuca. I really loved both of them!! Play Nice was scarier, while Ghost Business was just like a cozy little romance. It is not set in the fall really, but had enough of a vibe that made it fun spooky. Plus it fit this unseasonably hot weather we are having here. One more day, and it seems like we will have better temps.
Reading This Week:
I recently read In the Company of Witches by Auralee Wallace and I loved it, so I am looking forward to Late Night Witches. And hopefully by the time I get to Falling Like Leaves, we will have some actual Michigan fall weather around here!

The Gilmore Girls Episodes That I Love to Rewatch
Comfy Cozy Cinema: A Knight’s Tale
Friday Morning Coffee Catch Up
What We Are Watching:
We are watching along with our Comfy Cozy Cinema, that I am co-hosting with Lisa from Boondock Ramblings. We just watched A Knight’s Tale, and this week we are watching The Five Year Engagement, which I picked for the humorous depiction of Michigan. It is more than just the little jokes about Michigan though, and I hope you all enjoy it if you watch along!
We are also watching the cartoon Haunted Hotel, and we restarted Twin Peaks. I LOVED Twin Peaks as a teen and wanted to be Audrey Horne. I still want to be Audrey Horne, maybe. Billy and I were watching and can’t get over how much we still love it, and we both agreed I have been chasing that aesthetic my whole life. It is so weird and creepy and sad but it is so good. Very Lynch.
And that is it from me this morning! I have an eye appointment soon and I should probably get ready! I hope that whatever you do today, you do something that makes you smile.
Still Life, With Cracker Crumbs.. 
I love the colors of your autumn books. And yes, you HAVE been busy — but all good!

You did have a lost summer so I see no reason why you can’t extend it for a bit. My son loved Twin Peaks and had a shower curtain that was the floor of the hotel, I think. He also has one of those old fashioned hotel room keys that says Twin Peaks on it. He also had me knit him a scarf in that same red, white, and black pattern!

Lol that is awesome!! It’s such a weird show but I love it. David Lynch’s brain was an interesting place. And I love that you knit him a scarf in the colors!! Your son and I must be a similar age. 🙂

My favorite witch book as a child was “The Witch of Blackbird Pond.” I reread it as an adult not too long ago and was surprised how little I actually remembered about it. ha. It was still good though! I love how books can grow with us.

It is such a good one! I agree. I reread it a few years ago for banned books week and I really liked it even as an adult.

Matthew and his friend Rob have been watching Twin Peaks, two episodes at a time, every Tuesday at our house for months. They love it, and they went to an all-day showing of series 1 (but couldn’t face the two-day series 2 fest!).
